We have all noticed that when you heat something up, its temperature rises. Often we think that heat and temperature are the same thing. However, this is not the case. Heat and temperature are related to each other, but are different concepts.
Kidd history: My favorite thermometer is my candy thermometer! I use it to combine C12H22O11 with a little fat, dairy solids and energy to make a dream come true...until I eat too much and it takes out my filling and I have to make a dentist appointment.
